Looking For Testimonials on a Watchman Device for AFib

Posted By sheila (USA) on 11/20/2023

I got a postcard from my cardiology office encouraging anyone with AFib to get a watchman device implanted. I am distrustful of a blanket-mailing of a medical device. I am recovering from a 3x CABG in August. I'm just looking for anecdotal experiences. TIA

I don't know about the device that you are referring to, but my brother-in-law with Afib and many other issues has an Iwatch that has notified the rescue squad twice in the last year w/in seconds of him falling and rushed him to the hospital, saving his life. It has impressed me!
